So i just found out I preg with baby #1 :D I'm taking prenatal vits from CVS and they have 800 mcg folic acid. How much f.a. should I be taking? Will these prenats suffice until my appt in sept?
thanks n advance

Hooefully!:) My doctor is one of those doctors that likes to look at baby at every visit. But I saw my baby at 6 weeks 4 days, 9 weeks even,  and again at 9 weeks 4 days because I had developed a yeast infection and even saw baby moving on the screen!! Just little things to look forward too!! Stay positive.  I try to be everyday and pray every night for a healthy baby and pregnancy

I had to wait about a month after finding out I was pregnant too before I went to the doctor and started taking otc meds too. I still saw my baby and heard a healthy heartbeat at 9weeks.

Thanks. I'll keep doing what I'm doin and wait til sept 4 :) I just really hope 800 MICROGRAMS is enough :/ idk how to do this pregnancy thing.

Congrats! I had started taking NatureMade Prenatal Vitamins with DHA and they have 800mcg of Folic Acid and my doctor told me they should have 1000mcg. He said it's good at least that I was taking something until my 1st appointment with him.
